Gene expression and pathway analysis of effects of the CMAH deactivation on mouse lung, kidney and heart. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) is generated by hydroxylation of CMP-Neu5Ac to CMP-Neu5Gc, catalyzed by CMP-Neu5Ac hydroxylase (CMAH). However, humans lack this common mammalian cell surface molecule, Neu5Gc, due to inactivation of the CMAH gene ...
